Identity

IDENTITY = state of being the same; distinguishing character of an individual

QUESTION: Do you identify yourself as ego or SOUL?

STORY: It was 1983 when Norma Keller came to visit me to learn more about what I was doing in Malibu, CA. She sat for about 30 minutes while I drew this portrait. I was an Art Apprentice living with Gnostic Priest and Master Artist, Jan Valentin Saether, his artist wife Liv and their three children. Norma was a highly respected Prosperos Mentor with a powerful understanding of helping people work with their Two Identities: Ego and Soul/Consciousness. Ego identity is our lower-self that identifies us as a binary physical body that is different and separate from others and the world around us. (We all see, hear, taste, touch, smell and identify ourselves as good/bad, high/low, warm/cold, smart/dumb, beautiful/ugly, male/female, etc. Our Higher-Self is our Soul that identifies as the ONE Universal, formless, timeless, changeless, Spirit, Consciousness, Energy here Now. Today it is essential for everyone to WAKE UP - to LIVE our True Higher Self - and to connect with the Oneness of all life.
